Description

This Carnivore Pizza is the ultimate meaty indulgence designed especially for those following a carnivore or low-carb lifestyle. Ditch the dough — this crust is made entirely of ground beef and cheese, topped with layers of savory meats like pepperoni, bacon, and sausage. It’s high-protein, grain-free, and absolutely packed with flavor. Perfect for a weekend treat or a protein-packed dinner that satisfies meat cravings to the max.

Ingredients
    Crust:
  • 1 lb ground chicken (preferably lean)
  • 1 egg (helps bind the crust together)
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
    • Toppings:
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese (or more, depending on your love for cheese)
  • 1/2 cup cooked bacon (chopped)
  • 1/2 cup ground beef or sausage (or both!)
  • Optional: Pepperoni slices, chicken, or other meats you love
  • Fresh herbs (e.g., basil or oregano for garnish)
Instructions
  1. 1
    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. 2
    Prepare the crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, egg, Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
  3. 3
    Form the crust: Spread the chicken mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, shaping it into a round or square pizza shape. Make sure it’s about 1/4 inch thick.
  4. 4
    Bake the crust: Place the crust in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until it’s golden brown and cooked through. Check for doneness by pressing gently on the crust—it should be firm and not soggy.
  5. 5
    Add the toppings: Once the crust is done, remove it from the oven and sprinkle a generous amount of mozzarella cheese on top. Add your cooked meats (bacon, ground beef, sausage, etc.), then return it to the oven for an additional 5-10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  6. 6
    Finish and serve: Garnish with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of Parmesan. Slice and serve hot.
